J! 9/19

[tmq800]

Monday's J! (9/19) will be preempted on ABC stations that carry the show at 7:30 pm ET due to a MNF doubleheader.

I think that note sounds vaguely familiar.  In fact. . .

Let's go back a couple of weeks, shall we?

Doug -- and the countdown to 1500 continues

In fact, TMQ, you posted in that thread.  Twice.

Rest assured that TMQ will whine and complain everytime Wheel or J! is preempted for any reason, until he is told to cut it the hell out by someone with the power to do so.

That said, moderators, on-topic or no, is it really necessary for him to do this every Monday night during football season? 'Cuz that's what's going to happen.

Is this the first time MNF has started before 8PM on the East Coast?

I believe so, but I've only been watching MNF since 1995, back when the team was Al, Frank, and Dan.  For a season they had that 8pm ET pregame show, Monday Night Blast, but it bombed because Left Coasters were still in traffic at kickoff.

Yes, exactly.  Good Lord, Zach is the voice of reason in a thread.
